I've planted this today, does anyone else have one in their gardens? Any advice/tips would be welcome, as I am new to gardening.

here is the honeysuckle in its 3rd season, as you can see its growing through a trellis... smells awesome in mid july when the flowers open up,,
in its second season onwards the stems get really woody...

Honey Suckles resemble Fire Cracker flowers ... Seems like the same family :unsure: Its just tht fire crackers dont have any fragrance.
